Abstract
A high bandwidth cellular data (HBCD) terminal (500) uses multiple transceivers (528, 534, 5450) and modems (520, 532, 538) to simultaneously establish multiple data links to an HBCD server (114) via a mobile central office (MCO 102). Data links are created on the voice bands of cellular channels associated with one or more secondary mobile identification numbers (MINs) assigned to that terminal as more bandwidth is required. A high bandwidth analog cellular communication protocol simultaneously uses the multiple data links to transmit data. The plurality of secondary MINs and simultaneous links allows increased bandwidth with minimal costs associated to the MCO.
